  • Keg Filler Head with automatic shutoff?

    I need a keg filler head with the auto shutoff valve. Who sells these besides G.W. Kent? I've had one on back order for months and I need one now. Thanks in advance.

    Same issue with GW Kent. I keep getting a message- two weeks till shipment but it's been 3 months.

      If you have a straight through filler head - we produced a vent like the one proline on GW Kent. It is only the vent you need to supply Coupler and off gasing valve.

        I just bought two....

        And I am looking forward to trying them out. It won't be for a month or so though....

            You can build your own using corny keg fittings if you want. There's a vent/fill stop made for filling corny kegs. Just adapt an actual corny valve with some threaded fittings and a hose barb to a piece of 3/8" hose and voila. I haven't built one of these in a long time, but I used to get all the necessary parts from Foxx equipment.

              It looks like the Foxx parts would be:

              07C07-113 ($11.00)
              04C03-365 ($5.44)
              15C07-116 ($7.01)

              Put all this together and you end up with 1/4" MPT on one side (needs to connect to the gas out on your sanke coupler) and a 1/4" MFL on the other side where foam will exit, connect some hose and a bucket or whatever here.

                Actually, here is a better setup:

                04C03-318 ($3.21)
                07C07-113 ($11.00)
                04C03-317 ($5.44)
                15C07-116 ($7.01)

                That will be a normal beer-thread tailpiece to 1/4" MFL -> a FFL to Ball Lock -> a Ball Lock check valve -> 1/4" MFL.
